Today's #UMCGC Monitoring Report from Dawn Wiggins Hare and Rev. Dr. Giovanni Arroyo: "Welcome to the last day legislative committee work! We want to remind you that @gcorrumc and @GCSRW have been filing daily reports in the DCA. You can read a summary of our observations. Over the last two days, you have had a chance to organize and prioritize and seek to perfect petitions through holy conferencing. Update on gender inclusion: Across 14 committees, the results are below. Church, you get an A!"

.@GCSRW is the only place in the #UMC where there is a 1-800 number for victims or potential victims of sexual misconduct to call to talk to a live person to find out what resources and how you seek a resolution, how does healing begin.

Women, on average, make $0.82 to every $1 men make. On #EqualPayDay, we finally catch up to men's 2020 incomes. For many women of color, the gap is even wider: 🪙 AAPI women: $0.85 🪙 Black women: $0.63 🪙 Native women: $0.60 🪙 Latinas: $0.55 We need equal pay for equal work.

In a typical work day, the wage gap looks like this: 🕔 Men are paid for a full 9-5 day 🕑 Women in similar positions start working for free at 2:40 PM We need equal pay now. #EqualPayDay

FYI: At the top of each hour on Election Day, there will be a few minutes of spiritual Xanax from my friends on InstaLive. They are trying to help me keep it together. We are here if you need us.
